  • GrainFather Glycol Chiller 4 Port

    GrainFather Glycol Chiller 4 Port

    Control your fermentation temperature accurately, every time!

    Temperature control is one of the most crucial elements for producing a good quality beer. It needs to be regulated and stable throughout the whole fermentation process to ensure the yeast doesn't get stressed and ferments correctly to get the right flavour profile. With the ability to individually power and control the temperature of up to four Grainfather Conical Fermenters, each with their own fermenting schedules. Your system will operate at the ultimate level and you are even able to cold crash and lager down to 4-6C (39-43F).
    The Glycol Chiller connects to a hidden cooling sleeve, located in between the two stainless steel walls of the Conical Fermenter. Your desired temperature is dialed into the digital temperature controller on the Conical Fermenter, the liquid then travels through this sleeve, cooling the stainless steel which in turn cools the beer in the fermenter. The cooling sleeve never comes into contact with the beer, is completely concealed and does not need cleaning or sanitising - a true innovation for a fermenter on this scale.
    Features: Allows you to cold crash 23 L (6 US Gal) of wort to as low as 4-6C (39-43F). The minimum temperature will vary based on external factors such as ambient room temperature, the number of fermenters connected and other environmental conditions. Cools and powers up to 4 Conical Fermenters at different temperatures and fermenting schedules. Note: The instructions for the Glycol Chiller will be attached to the outside of the shipping box. It is important that you retain these, do not throw them away and read them carefully before use to ensure no damage occurs to the unit. If these for any reason are not included with your purchase, we highly recommend you download a new copy from Grainfather's website. 36 month warranty for Glycol Chillers.
    Included in the kit Glycol Chiller Wall outlet power cord with plug 2 x cooling connection couplers 2 x 2 m (6.5 ft) insulated hoses 1 x Glycol Funnel 1 x silicon tube for priming pump Propylene Glycol sold separately

    Note: When you receive your unit, you will need to fill it up with a propylene glycol mixture. Refer to the instructions provided with the Glycol Chiller for mixing, filling and pump priming information.

  • GrainFather Glycol Chiller Adapter Kit

    GrainFather Glycol Chiller Adapter Kit

    The Glycol Chiller Adapter is designed to expand on the capabilities of the Grainfather Glycol Chiller, by allowing almost any fermenter on the market to be connected, and temperature controlled - including most plastic bucket fermenters!
    The Glycol Chiller Adapter works in a similar way to the Conical Fermenter Pro but instead of the built-in cooling sleeve and heating element, it uses a stainless steel cooling coil and a heating pad to control the temperature of almost any fermenter.
    The cooling coil is connected to the Glycol Chiller and immersed in the fermenter. The heating pad is attached to the side of the fermenter using hook and loop tape. A temperature probe is also attached to the fermenter and the GCA will then regulate the cooling, or heating, as required.
    The GCA connects to the Grainfather App so you can control your fermentation temperature on the go.
